Not to rock the boat, but to what extent is saying "this guy is a toxic white supremacist and we should not support him" permitted? Because I was the first person to even bring it up in the thread, and leaving it unsaid would have been, I think, unconscionable and awkward. I tried to be as diplomatic as possible in my statement, keeping it brief and slinging no personal attacks. My intent was not to start any flame wars; I just think it's critical that we, as a community, don't sweep such uncomfortable facts under the rug. (And frankly, I don't even know which controversies on HN are well-worn. This is the first I've seen of Yarvin in any prominent posting since I got here.)
